What are the most "smelly" but healthful foods in the world?

7. Durian Durian is the most famous in Thailand and is known as the "king of fruit". Its smell is very strong, people who love it praise its smell, and people who hate it complain about its smell. So hotels, trains, planes and public places are not allowed to be brought in. Although durian stinks, people who have never eaten durian will boldly try the first bite, but the sweet and refreshing taste will teach you to eat more and more. Many tourists will have an endless aftertaste and even become addicted after tasting the delicious durian, so now the durian from Thailand is sold all over the world every year. Durian is oval, generally weighing about 2 kilograms, with a wooden hard shell outside and a room inside. Every room has three or four seeds as big as egg yolk, with ten to fifteen. The seeds are covered with a layer of ointment, that is, pulp, milky yellow. It tastes sweet and fragrant. Sixth, tropical fruit guava lovers must be familiar with it. In Africa, its medical efficacy has long been well known, and women in Pacific islands use guava pulp as a lotion for face and body. Guava contains a variety of rich nutrients (sugar, vitamins, minerals, etc. ), so that it has the ability to moisturize, rejuvenate and protect the skin. Guava has high nutritional and medicinal value, and contains many nutrients and beneficial substances needed by human body, such as sugar, grapes, sucrose and glutamic acid. In addition, guava is also favored by people because it is rich in vitamin C. Guava powder is almost an indispensable necessity in long-term field scientific exploration activities, which can timely supplement the human body's demand for vitamin C and effectively avoid diseases caused by vitamin C deficiency. Not only that, guava is also widely used in food processing industry, the main purpose is to increase the content of vitamin C in food, so that the nutrition of food can be strengthened and improved. Guava is not only a fresh fruit eaten raw, but also has significant medicinal value, such as its hypoglycemic effect, which is often used to treat diabetes abroad. Experiments show that people with diabetes often eat guava, which has obvious auxiliary treatment effect on the relief of symptoms. However, because guava tastes sweet and contains tannins, it can stop diarrhea and lead to constipation. Therefore, people suffering from constipation or excessive internal heat should not eat it. In addition, the bark, roots and leaves of guava can also be used as medicine to treat some diseases. 5. Stinky Tofu The stinky tofu in China smells bad and tastes good. Some people stay at a respectful distance from others, while others regard it as a hobby. In fact, stinky tofu belongs to fermented bean products, which not only produces certain corrupt substances, but also is easily contaminated by bacteria. From the health point of view, it is better to eat less. Studies have proved that in the fermentation process of bean products, amine substances such as methylamine, putrescine, tryptamine and hydrogen sulfide will be produced, which have special odor and strong volatility, and eating more is not good for health. In addition, amines may react with nitrite for a long time to produce nitrosamines, which are a strong carcinogen. Stinky tofu is small, but the production process is complicated, and it has to go through several processes such as frying, adding brine and fermentation. In the whole production process, the requirements are carried out under natural conditions, and the requirements for temperature and humidity are very high. Once it is not well controlled, it will be easily polluted by other bacteria, causing gastrointestinal diseases, and even leading to a large number of botulism, producing a toxic substance-botulinum toxin. This is a neurotoxin, which is extremely toxic. In recent years, stinky tofu poisoning incidents have been reported from time to time, which is caused by this toxin. In fact, stinky tofu is not useless, it can synthesize a lot of vitamin B 12 in the production process. Lack of vitamin B 12 will accelerate brain aging and easily lead to Alzheimer's disease. However, vitamin B 12 exists in meat, eggs, milk, fish, shrimp and other animal foods. Compared with these advantages, people should pay more attention to the shortcomings of stinky tofu. If it is really difficult to quit stinky tofu, I suggest you eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, which contain vitamin C to block the formation of nitrosamines. Fourth place, kiviak Canada's fermented food, first prepare a dead seal to take out its internal organs, then put 70 or 80 seabirds in the belly of the dead seal, then bury it for fermentation, and then suck out substances from the bird's anus, which sounds incredible. People who originally lived in the Arctic Circle supplemented their vegetable intake by eating raw meat, but the custom of gradually cooking cooked meat took root, and the chances of getting vitamins from raw meat decreased. Therefore, kiviak was used as a seasoning to eat on the barbecue to achieve the purpose of supplementing vitamins. Simply put, people in the Arctic Circle use the rich nutrients produced by fermentation sacrifices to finally obtain vitamins. In the third place, Leia sliced Leia is the top ingredient in Jeolla-do, South Korea. The most special thing is that it will ferment by itself, and then it will give off a strong pungent ammonia smell (toilet smell), which is also commonly known as ammonia smell. Therefore, the tour guide specially reminded. Don't take a deep breath when eating, otherwise accidents will easily happen! However, although the rays smell bad, the locals can't put them down. It is said that its smell is five times that of kiviak, the third place, and 14 times that of natto. It is a must-have delicacy for important festivals such as weddings, funerals and celebrations. Second, canned pickled herring. For Swedes, late summer and early autumn are the best time of the year. At this time, the sky is blue, the breeze is warm, and the sunshine is abundant. The Swedish pickled herring, the favorite food of Sweden and the most smelly food in the world, is also quietly listed at this time. Swedish pickled herring is a canned food with a foul smell and sour taste. Every year from April to June, when herring lays eggs, fishermen will salvage hundreds of tons of herring to prepare raw materials for curing herring. The uniqueness of pickled herring lies in natural fermentation. In order to ensure that the herring will not rot and deteriorate during fermentation, the producers always put the herring that has just been salvaged into strong salt water and cook it with slow fire, and then put it into a can to let it ferment naturally. It is said that this process of curing herring has been circulating for nearly 300 years. At first, in order to save money, fishermen came up with a method of curing herring by natural fermentation, because it would consume less salt. First of all, TEX MEX seasoning is an important part of food all over the world. There are many Spanish condiments, one of which is so peculiar that it is difficult for China people to enjoy it. The Spanish name of seasoning is TEX MEX, and the Chinese pronunciation should be Tekos Mekos. The biggest feature of this seasoning is "smelly", but its smell is different from cheese and China preserved eggs, and its smell feature is "body odor" (underarm odor). Spanish restaurants and ordinary people's homes are often filled with this unpleasant seasoning smell. According to a Spanish chef, this seasoning is mainly used for all kinds of meat and lettuce. In Spanish cuisine, fried pork chops and steaks are coated with a thick layer of body odor seasoning after being fried. Sometimes this seasoning is mixed in salads. The chef said that there are more than 20 kinds of natural plants in this seasoning formula, and the "bad smell" is a small seed called Comino, which is abundant in Spain and Central and South American countries, especially Mexico. People in countries rich in this kind of seed are not only used to the taste, but also "can't put it down". White Europeans have body odor and are used to it. Most people in China don't like the smell. The reporter once recommended many diners from China to taste the dishes made with this seasoning, but it made them feel queasy and even vomit. In fact, China people are not afraid of stinking, and China's "rotten milk", "stinky tofu" and "stinky winter melon" are also stinking. But Chinese-style "smelly" also makes Europeans frown. The Spanish chef told reporters that he was also studying the "stink" in Chinese food, and got a lot of thoughts and experiences: "Everything that stinks is extremely nutritious, which is the similarity between Chinese and western food, but the stinking method between Chinese and western food is different." The chef said that he was going to hold a "all-smelly" cooking exhibition to introduce "smelly dishes" from China and "smelly dishes" from Spain to diners in both countries, with the aim of enhancing understanding through "smelly dishes", especially the eating habits and delicacies of the two countries.
